The Hnrn Triumnhnnt.

The soiree musicale, which took place
last evening at the residence OF Mr.. William
+. Hoffman, 1914 Twelfth street, for the
benefit OF the Pensoara Free kindergarten,
was a most enjoyable entertainment and a
success in every respect. The gems of the
evening were Miss Annie Carter's rendering
of signor Fabiani's patriotic march, "For-
ward, Columbia" and his two harp solos.
To fully appreciate the power and sweet
ness OF harp music this grand composer
should be heard, who performs equally well
on the piano ana harp. The programme
comprised some other very pleasing fea-
tures, especially Mrs. Monro's "Frubling' s
Lied" and some violin music by Mr..
Szemebiny. Mr.. Ch. Mass gained much ap-
plause by his rendering OF Mendelssohn's
''Cspiiccloso.n Miss Lesca Pollock sung
Fabiani's "Alpine Rose" in a clear, sweet
voice In manner which was a credit to her
instructor and gives promise Of future ex-
cellence. The little girls from Mrs. Pollock s
National kindergarten gave uuch pleasure
by singing several of their pretty kindergar-
ten songs,
